Late season elk success!
« on: November 25, 2016, 11:11:15 AM »
Was able to get a shot at a cow Wednesday evening 60yds super steep up hill shot.  She was quartering towards me a little more than I thought but regardless it was a 40yd recovery from where she was shot.  Always nice to watch them drop.

    Nice Elk D-Rock! My father is up in 105 as we speak and saw 15 cows yesterday, but it is "any bull." Any Elk is a good Elk. Way to get er done!

Good job, way to get it done.  :tup:
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Was she quartering right or left- guessing that's the exit.

I'm always interested in where hits are and what's affected.  Check out the discussion link on anatomy and angles.

Critters don't seem to present a broadside shot often- but that's what we practice

Keep 'em Straight!!! (and quiet)
